Pet care experience
Hello! I am an artist and massage student and a lifelong animal lover. My childhood was filled with cats and I love to get to know their different personalities. I have also cared for dogs of various sizes and breeds, from small and rowdy pomeranians to large, gentle pit-bulls-- I do prefer to care for small to medium-sized animals, but I am willing to work with any animal who takes a liking to me. I have consoled frightened shelter dogs during thunderstorms and fireworks shows and spent rambunctious hours playing with high-energy dogs. I have an active lifestyle and love to walk, and I am comfortable walking with dogs at a slow pace, fast pace, or running speed. My hours are currently fairly flexible and I can be available with short notice, though my transportation is limited. I would love to get to know your pets, and I look forward to caring for them!
Reviews
Rosie is the best! Promptly responded to my last minute request and does a great job!
Rosie was great! She left very detailed reports and my dog really seemed to like her. I will definitely keep her at the top of my list when I am out of town.
Rosie was fantastic with my dog Remy while I was out of town. She provided thoughtful daily updates with pictures, and I came home to a happy pup. I would definitely have Rosie dogsit again!
I cannot begin to sing Rosie’s praises enough. I came home to a less stressed dog, and it’s a testimony to how well Rosie works with my dog (and I’m sure any pets she’s taking care of). She goes above and beyond always. Rosie is my go-to sitter hands down. Trustworthy, caring, communicative.

Safety, trust & environment
I live in an apartment with an FIV+ cat and so I cannot board pets at my home. I am happy to care for pets at your home, however, and am willing to tend to plants, additional animals such as chickens, and other household tasks.
Information Rosie N. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors that I should account for. I am less familiar with dogs than with cats, so I may not be the best fit for very nervous dogs or dogs that have been very recently adopted. I prefer to arrange a meet-and-greet ahead of time to make sure that the dog responds well to me and is comfortable around me.
A typical day
I will be there for your pets through play time and nap time. I am happy to sit and cuddle with pets when they're feeling calm and run around and take long walks when they're feeling frisky. I am acquainted with several parks in the Tri-Cities area and am happy to check out new areas if your dog has a favorite walking route or play area.

Availability
I'm currently waiting to start my new job, and I am pretty flexible throughout the week. On work days that occur during house stays, I will be available before 8am and after 6pm and could stop by during lunch to check up on pets.
